If you use eldk 5.3, a board will be bricked if you set the load address
to not (an aligned address _+ 2_). So anyone who didn't know the +2
requirement, has a bricked board (and can't recover). So this is
really a different then md trapping, since resetting the board won't
help... it is broken / kaput.
That said, I am not really in favor of this solution. But I do think it
needs
to be fixed.

Jeroen
